Hotel Dengan Spa di Kyoto Prefecture, Japan

It was an amazing stay. The onsen is clean and spacious. Rooms are spacious too for Japan. The lighting is on point. Water pressure in the shower is great and loved the scent of their hotel bath gels and shampoo. There are water filters to refill water and small washers/dryers at several floors.

The location is spot on. It's incredibly handy for getting around, with everything right on your doorstep. You've got loads of shops and places to explore nearby, so you're never short of things to do😊 Brilliant ! housekeeping did a cracking job. It’s a proper eco-friendly spot, they give you a reusable water bottle to use during your stay, which is dead handy for carrying around while you're out and about. Just a heads-up, though you can't just take them home, but if you're a fan, you can buy one at reception

I stayed at Urban Hotel Kyoto Shijo Premium for two nights and had a really enjoyable experience. The room was very clean and well maintained, and the space was more generous than expected, making the stay comfortable and relaxing. The pricing was very affordable for what was offered, especially considering the excellent facilities available. The public bath was a great way to unwind after a long day of sightseeing, and the gym and washing area were very convenient for travelers. Service from the staff was excellent throughout my stay—friendly, professional, and always willing to help. Overall, this was a fantastic stay and great value for money. I only wish my stay could have been longer, and I definitely hope to return again in the future.

A very nice hotel with spa onsen that you can enter for free the place near JR sanin line that easy to go to Arashiyama bamboo forest and very near Nijo Castle by walk, the Bus stop also in front of the hotel, Family mart 7-11 also very near

Room was a little small but its decent enough for a 1-2 night trip. indoor onsen was huge while their outdoor onsen has a view of the sea.

Best stay in Kyoto, staffs are all so nice & welcoming. Morning breakfast is super good, with whole day coffee and best matcha serving from the machine! Night time they serve ramen, ice cream and drinks. All guest dress in their onsen clothes walked around, took turns to enjoy the massage chair, sit around and chat. What a good experience! Laundry is free!! dryer costs about 100yen for 20mins, 200yen for 40mins, what a deal!

It is located next to the train station, which is very convenient, and it is only 20 minutes from Tokyo. Surrounded by supermarkets and restaurants, but you can feel the local vibes here. The check-in is quick and pleasant, as you can expect from the Japanese service. The room came with breakfast and access to the Onsen, but I didn't have the chance to use it. There are laundry machines available on the lobby floor. Breakfast is nice and delicious, but seating may be limited. The staff are nice and welcoming.

Royal Twin Hotel Kyoto was perfect for me as a female solo traveler. It’s just a three minute walk to Kyoto Station, with 7 Eleven and Aeon Mall right nearby (less than 1km), which made everything feel convenient and safe. I felt comfortable the entire stay and would gladly choose it again.

The lobby makes a strong first impression with its tasteful, contemporary design—very much in line with what seasoned travelers appreciate after a long journey. Location-wise, the hotel is a solid choice. Being close to the train station and surrounded by local food options made getting around and finding good meals effortless. That said, the 5pm check-in time is noticeably later than usual and can be inconvenient if you arrive early. I passed the time at the restaurant and bar next to the lobby, taking advantage of their Happy Hour, which helped. A nice touch was the self-service luggage storage area—practical and traveler-friendly. I stayed in a corner room. The room itself was fine: clean, functional, and simple, as expected of many Japanese hotels. The view, however, was unremarkable. I also tried the public bath. It was reasonably sized and, thankfully, not too crowded during my visit, making it a relaxing experience. Service was a bit cool at first, though it improved as the stay went on. Overall, I would consider returning, especially when traveling as a couple.

🛏️ Room Size: I stayed here with my family of five, and the room was much more spacious than I expected. The layout was very well organized, with different areas clearly divided. Everything looked exactly like the pictures. 📍 Location: The hotel is very close to the central Gion area, which is very convenient. It’s about a 5-minute walk to the train station, so not far at all. There are convenience stores along the way, which made everything even easier. 🧺 Amenities: The amenities were very complete. There was a washing machine and dryer, and even laundry detergent was provided. Although I had to run the dryer twice for the clothes to be fully dry, it was still very convenient. The kitchen was fully equipped with cookware, dishes, and a kettle, even though I didn’t try using the stove. ⚠️ Recommendation: There are two hotels with the same name located close to each other, so be careful not to go to the wrong one. 👃 Downside: Since the hotel is next to a restaurant, when I entered the room there was a strong grilled fish smell coming in from the window. Even though the room had an air purifier, it didn’t really help with the smell.
